The 1989–90 Serie A season was another successful year for Napoli, with Diego Maradona being among the leading goalscorers in Serie A, behind Marco van Basten of Milan and Roberto Baggio of Fiorentina. But while Baggio's Fiorentina narrowly avoided relegation, Maradona's Napoli won their second Serie A title in four seasons, while Van Basten helped Milan retain the European Cup as compensation for their failure to win the Serie A title, having finished two points behind Napoli. Demoted to Serie B for 1990–91 were Udinese, Hellas Verona, Cremonese and Ascoli. In Europe, Sampdoria won the Cup Winners Cup and Juventus the UEFA Cup, making this year the most successful in Italian football history.
Juventus F.C. finished second in Serie A and reached the final of the Coppa Italia in this season.
Juventus F.C. did not manage to win the domestic championship for the seventh year in succession, but the legacy of the season was saved when it beat Borussia Dortmund by 3–1 away from home, then 3–0 in Turin, to clinch the 1992–93 edition of the UEFA Cup.
Juventus Football Club finished second in Serie A following the 1995-96 season and regained the European Cup trophy after 11 years, winning the Champions League final against Ajax 4–2 on penalties in Rome. Juventus also won the Supercoppa Italiana in the late summer of 1995, before going on to finish second in the league. Following the Champions League title, strikers Gianluca Vialli and Fabrizio Ravanelli were sold to Chelsea and Middlesbrough, respectively. The club also dropped Pietro Vierchowod, Paulo Sousa and Massimo Carrera. Instead, Juventus decided to sign playmaker Zinedine Zidane from Bordeaux, along with young striker Christian Vieri, who signed from Atalanta.
U.C. Sampdoria recorded its best league season since 1960-61, thanks to a fourth place-finish. President Mantovani had surprised the football world by signing Liverpool stalwart Graeme Souness to the squad, and it paid off, with Souness adapting quickly to Italian football, also helping the team to win the 1985 edition of Coppa Italia, which was the first ever title for the club. The defensive line, with Moreno Mannini, Pietro Vierchowod and Antonio Paganin among the crew, was the main reason for the success, Sampdoria conceding just 23 goals in 30 league matches played. Quite a few of the players were still with the club when it finally won the league title in 1991.
U.C. Sampdoria started its march towards an eventual Serie A championship and European Cup final with its appointment of Yugoslav coach Vujadin Boškov. With Britons Graeme Souness and Trevor Francis leaving the squad, Boškov built his team around young Italian players, with Roberto Mancini, Gianluca Vialli, Pietro Vierchowod and Moreno Mannini among the bulwark of the squad as Sampdoria finished 6th in a tight battle involving several teams for 3rd in the championship.
U.C. Sampdoria had its most successful season ever, winning the Coppa Italia and reaching the final of the Cup Winners' Cup, where it came up short to Barcelona with 2–0. It finished fifth in Serie A with 14 goals from Gianluca Vialli marking the international breakthrough for the striker.
S.S. Lazio finished 9th in Serie A this season.
A.C. Fiorentina finished in the midfield of Serie A, beating Roma 1-0 in a playoff match due to a goal by ex-Roma player Roberto Pruzzo. The season also marked the international breakthrough of Roberto Baggio, the striker scoring 15 league goals, also setting up several of Stefano Borgonovo's 14.
S.S.C. Napoli won their second ever Italian championship, thanks to a new club record in points scored over the course of the season. Diego Maradona scored 16 of the side's 57, whilst the contributions of other players such as Careca and Gianfranco Zola gave Napoli enough of an attacking edge to claim the title.
AC Milan won their second consecutive European Cup, thanks to a final victory over Benfica. The Dutch trio of Marco van Basten, Ruud Gullit and Frank Rijkaard was now a firmly established unit, but their efforts were not quite enough to defeat Napoli in the title chase. This team is regarded as one of the best teams of all time.
U.C. Sampdoria won their first ever Serie A title, thanks to a remarkable season for a team playing at its absolute peak. Gianluca Vialli was the league top scorer on 19 goals, and Roberto Mancini, Attilio Lombardo, goalkeeper Gianluca Pagliuca plus centre half Pietro Vierchowod were also instrumental in Sampdoria's success story.
Associazione Sportiva Roma had a rather average season, but finished solidly inside the top half of Serie A with a sixth place. German striker Rudi Völler had his best season at Roma, scoring 14 league goals, whilst Stefano Desideri hit 10 goals. The greatest success of Roma's season was the Primavera team winning the national championship.
Juventus finished in 4th place in the league this season, but won the Coppa Italia and the UEFA Cup.
The 2013–14 Coppa Italia, also known as TIM Cup for sponsorship reasons, was the 67th edition of the competition. As in the previous year, 78 clubs have taken part in the tournament. Lazio were the cup holders. Napoli were the winners, thus qualifying for the group stage of the 2014–15 UEFA Europa League.
The 2014–15 Coppa Italia, also known as TIM Cup for sponsorship reasons, was the 68th edition of the national cup in Italian football. Napoli were the defending champions, having won the previous year's final, but were eliminated in the semi-finals by Lazio. Juventus emerged victorious with a 2–1 win in extra time, achieving a record tenth title.
The 2017–18 Coppa Italia, also known as TIM Cup for sponsorship reasons, was the 71st edition of the national cup in Italian football. As a minimum, the winners of the Coppa Italia earn a place in the 2018–19 Europa League and would begin play in the group stage unless they qualify for a more favourable UEFA placing based on league play. Seventy-eight clubs participated in this season's cup competition.
During the 1989-90 season A.C. Fiorentina competed in Serie A, Coppa Italia and UEFA Cup.
